Abstract: A method for cleaning the bottom of a pool uses an automated programmed
pool cleaner (20) capable of reversing movement and turning that is initially placed at an
arbitrary location on the bottom of the pool and moved in a forward direction until it
encounters an upright pool wall (12); the unit is reversed until it is a first predetermined
distance from the wall, turned through a predetermined angle less than 180° and
advanced until it again encounters an upright wall (16); these steps are repeated until the
unit has encountered upright walls a predetermined number of times, after which the
first predetermined distance is changed to one or more subsequent predetermined
distances. All of the previous steps are repeated until all or substantially all of the
pool has been cleaned. In a preferred embodiment, a rectangular pool is cleaned by
setting the turning angle to 90° and the number of turns before changing the
predetermined distance to seven. In another aspect of the invention, the unit has a
rotary impeller (52) driven in a horizontal plane, and the robot is turned by interrupting
motive force to the impeller a plurality of times during a predetermined period of time
to create a sufficient torque or torsional force to rotate the nearly neutrally buoyant

Abstract: A process and apparatus related to a workstation
adjacent to a traveling web (12) including a device (10) for
intermittently performing an operation affecting the web.
An important application involves ultrasonically welding
multiple layers of a traveling web (12). First and second
rollers (30,32,34,36) on opposite sides of the workstation are
simultaneously shifted in a direction counter to the
machine direction each time a bonding force is applied.
The overall running speed in the machine remains at a
constant velocity due to the resultant festooning effect
and thus the dwell time for bonding is increased. Thus
the effective operating speed of processed having finite
limits may be increased at least 33%. The first and
second rollers (30,32,34,36) are eccentrically rotationally mounted,
respectively, on third and fourth hollow rollers which
are provided with eccentrically positioned hollow
cylindrical openings which, in turn, are mounted,
respectively, on shafts positioned perpendicularly to the
machine direction. Shifting of the rollers (30,32,34,36) is effected
by simultaneous rotation of the rollers. Preferably, the
first (30) and second (32) rollers are driven synchronously in a
first rotational direction and the third (34) and fourth (36)
rollers are driven synchronously in the opposite
rotational direction.
